STG Version: 2.18 & 2.17
"Detect mouse clicks" is enabled; however, on one of the applications I am trying to record, the click highlighting does not happen. When I focus the desktop, the mouse clicks are highlighted without issue.

The application is a .Net Winforms app using some DevExpress controls. I'm not able to include screenshots of the application for security reasons.

I'll take a look at the source, but I figured I'd throw this up just in case there is a known cause for this. I didn't see any other reports of similar behavior.
